ATEN CE700A USB CAT5 Console Extender
Overview
The ATEN CE700A is a USB CAT5 KVM extender designed to provide remote console access to a computer or server, up to 150 meters away. This unit consolidates USB keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) signals over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable, simplifying deployment in environments where the control station must be physically separated from the equipment. Its rack-mountable form factor makes it suitable for server rooms and data centers.
Compatibility
The CE700A extends USB keyboard and mouse connections, compatible with standard USB HID devices. It supports video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz at 30 meters, 1600 x 1200 @ 60Hz at 100 meters, and 1280 x 1024 @ 60Hz at its maximum range of 150 meters. This makes it suitable for use with a wide range of PCs and servers running operating systems that support USB HID input and standard VGA/UXGA video output.
Installation Notes
This device requires a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable for both KVM signal transmission and power delivery to the remote unit (via the included power adapter). Ensure the cable run is within the specified distance limits for the desired video resolution. The unit features a green Link LED to indicate a stable connection. It requires a standard DC power input for the local unit.
